Teaser Tuesdays is a weekly bookish meme. Read the rules and more teasers at The Purple Booker. Anyone can play along.
The 2 Sisters Detective Agency is an interesting departure for James Patterson, introducing readers to Rhonda Bird, an unusual main character: a strong, fat, self-secure woman who doesn’t run from trouble but isn’t your lean, put-together super-spy, either. Rhonda is a woman driven by deep compassion for troubled kids, and her outlook is both surprising and refreshing.

James Patterson and Candice Fox, 2 Sisters Detective Agency
Summary
Attorney Rhonda Bird returns home after a long estrangement when she learns her father has died. There she makes two important discoveries: her father stopped being an accountant and had opened up a private detective agency, and she has a teenage half sister named Baby. Baby brings in a client to the detective agency, a young man who claims he was abducted. During the course of the investigation, Rhonda and Baby become entangled in a dangerous case involving a group of overprivileged young adults who break laws for fun, their psychopath ringleader, and an ex-assassin victim who decides to hunt them down for revenge.
